   The 4 cent fixed component of the motor fuel tax is composed of a 2 cents "Constitutional Fuel Tax", a 1 cent county fuel tax and a 1 cent municipal fuel tax. The variable component "fuel sales tax" of the State motor-fuel tax (11.6 cents) is determined by annually adjusting the base rate of 6.9 cents by the change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI). The minimum amount of the variable tax is 6.9 cents per gallon. The variable component "fuel sales tax" does not apply to "alternative fuels", i.e., LPG and CNG. The diesel and "alternative fuels" rates include mandatory local option taxes of 1 cent (the "ninth-cent tax") and 6 cents. On gasoline and gasohol, counties may also impose the 1 cent ("ninth-cent tax") and a "local option fuel tax" between 1 cent and 11 cents. Diesel and LPG rates shown also include an additional variable tax, the "State Comprehensive Enhanced Transportation system (SCETS) Tax". The SCETS rate was initially computed as two-thirds of the lesser of six cents or the "local option fuel tax" rate imposed by the county (including the "Ninth-Cent Tax"), and subsequently adjusted for annual changes in the CPI. (For 2008: diesel/LPG/CNG rate is 6.2 cents and the gasoline/gasohol rate ranges from 5.3 to 6.4 cents).
